ESBS an eve-style bounty system


other ideas:
- if bounty = very high -> outlaw
- contracts to get the job done quicker
- bribe concord to temporary(!) get rid of the bounty in selected regions
- ... 100 other things, see bold text below

note: this is only the core idea for a not exploitable system. The system can be improved/tweaked further but i wanted to keep it short and only highlight the fix to the problem




are you implying that if i put a high enough bounty on someone it makes them an outlaw and that it cant be abused at the same time? Lets say i see someone in jita scan his ship and there are implants in it. Assuming it cannot be ganked since im alone and its a drake, i just slam a massive bounty on it kill it get my money back and scoop the loot. Works for me.

well. first you can't just give anybody bounties. The sec status restriction remains. So all this could do is to make from an cirminal an outlaw. Secondly you wouldn't get all your money back by killing his drake (partial payouts). Is that to brutal? It probably is. So lets mark that as bad idea :)

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value
